Aimee Bock

Aimee Bock, the founder and former executive director of Feeding Our Future, has been involved in a high-profile federal criminal case related to a large-scale fraud scheme. She was convicted on multiple counts, including conspiracy to commit wire fraud, wire fraud, conspiracy to commit federal programs bribery, and federal programs bribery, following a jury trial that concluded in March 2025 (CourtListener). The indictment alleged that she was part of a scheme to misappropriate federal funds intended for child nutrition programs, amounting to hundreds of millions of dollars. Further court proceedings included a preliminary order of forfeiture, which authorized the seizure of assets worth over $3.5 million, including bank accounts, a vehicle, and real estate, with a total forfeiture judgment of approximately $5.2 million against her (CourtListener; MPR News). Bock has denied wrongdoing and has filed motions for acquittal or a new trial, claiming insufficient evidence to support her convictions, but these motions were denied (CourtListener; Star Tribune). Throughout the trial, prosecutors presented evidence that Bock and her organization misused federal funds, with allegations that she personally received over $1 million from the scheme. Her legal situation remains ongoing, with asset seizures and judgments in place, but no reports indicate she has been formally indicted or convicted of additional crimes beyond the fraud scheme related to Feeding Our Future (CourtListener).
